APRS Beacon fails to TX when keys locked

Post by VK3XEM »

Not sure if this is a bug or if it is a setting I have gotten wrong. But when I have the keys locked APRS will not transmit, I can key up the PTT and transmit normally and if the keys are unlocked APRS functions normally.

Is this a bug?

I would call it a bug as locking the keys, while still being able to use the PTT, shouldn't disable APRS TX.

Best thing to do is report it to Radioddity.. or which ever firmware you are using (Retevis, Kydera etc.)
